The shine of Arutam´s tears

Conversations with the shade before Arutam light
The voice of Arutam is steadily revealing everywhere in the jungle. Day and night His whisper slips through logs, leaves, breezes, feathers and furs.

The main purpose and the minor ones for the man walking the path of Shamanism
The purpose of the man’s way in Shamanism is to rediscover the union with Arutam (Great Spirit). Man must release his feelings by remembering where he came from and how he was born.

First question Participant: For the second time, during the second ceremony, I feel fear of death.

Some words of wisdom about fasting and Ayahuasca ceremony
